Debbie Milks, of Chestnut Charlie's, 1840 E. 1450 Rd., scores fresh chestnuts at the Holiday Farmers' Market, 200 McDonald Dr., on Saturday, Dec. 10, 2011. Milks explained that a single circular cut works better for peeling than the traditional "X" cut. The chestnuts were grown on the Chestnut Charlie's farm north of Lawrence, where Milks and Charlie NovoGradac have grown organic nuts since 1995.
